Increase In American Hunger

From Amy Goldstein's article in today's Washington Post:

"The nation's economic crisis has catapulted the number of Americans who lack enough food to the highest level since the government has been keeping track, according to a new federal report, which shows that nearly 50 million people -- including almost one child in four -- struggled last year to get enough to eat."

If this does not turn around, we will need to change the current Food Stamp and Welfare policy. That is, we will need to re-reform welfare so that children can eat. We definitely need to do something.
